«…We leave Africa, not to mention it again. For
it is not historical part of the World; it has no movement or development to
exhibit... What we properly understand by Africa, is the Unhistorical,
Undeveloped Spirit, still involved in the conditions of mere nature, and which
had to be presented here only as on the threshold of the World’s History.»
Scene no 92: African warriors (Cherilea Toys)
dance in front of the Vodun shrine (Unknown manufacturer), where they
communicate with their ancestors and deities.
